In the fishing kayak business.... [View all]

Christmas is going to be great this year. The New River won't know what hit it.


I went to buy my son his first yak last Saturday and ended up buying a 2014 Coosa demo, well that's too nice for my son so I just had to find him another boat.





So after a bunch of research, and knowing how well this Perception boat is in the river. I decided to buy the same kayak we rented for him a couple of times this summer for all day float trips. He never had one issue, when I was taking a dunking in the rapids he run right on by me while I stood holding a 1200 dollar kayak in waist deep water.




Now I've got to install some rod holders on the red boat. Set up both boats with the normal fishing accessories and wait for spring.
